I am confused, you appear to be trying to PXE (read RAMDISK) boot a RAMDISK booting image.

It looks to me like "Matryoshka booting" (a neologism I just invented
![:cheers:](http://reboot.pro/public/style_emoticons/default/cheers.gif)
):
http://en.wikipedia....Matryoshka_dollTry doing the following:
Use this as your
PXE dir WINNT.SIF:
[SetupData]
BootDevice="ramdisk(0)"
BootPath="\i386\System32\"
OsLoadOptions="/noguiboot /fastdetect /minint /rdexportashd /rdpath=BootSDI.img"
Transfer via PXE the BootSDI.img, NOT the livexp.iso containing it.
The BootSDI.img,
UNLIKE the name suggests, is
NOT a SDI format image, but rather a RAW image of a partition (or if you prefer a "superfloppy" image).
As thus it can be mounted using either IMDISK (suggested in this case) or FILEDISK or VDK, some links:
http://www.boot-land...?showtopic=1507Alternatively, re-build your LIVEXP WITHOUT the BootSDI option checked, make sure that the RAMDISK.SYS inside the .iso is the right one, and serve via PXE the "plain" livexp.iso, keeping your PXE dir WINNT.SIF:
[SetupData]
BootDevice = "ramdisk(0)"
BootPath = "\i386\System32\"
OsLoadOptions = "/noguiboot /fastdetect /minint /rdexportascd /rdpath=livexp.iso"
In other words, what you want as your system directory is:
WARNING
PSEUDO-CODE:
ramdisk(0)\i386\System32\
i.e. something like:
ROOT(BootSDI.img)\i386\System32\
or:
ROOT(livexp.iso)\i386\System32\
What you are having now (maybe)
